The best time to make olive oil is right after they ripen, when they are green. The methods are different depending on which grower you ask, but olive oil itself is made before the olives turn black.

What is the best type of olive tree to plant in your garden?

it is better to plant a olive tree that gives you medium size olive so you can pick them and eat them. small olives are only good for oil. you can plant a kalamata or Volos tree, they both give you good size olives. if you like your olives very big you can plant a Spanish jumbo or kalamata jumbo but it wont give you as many olives as the medium. the bigger the size of the olives the less you get. keep in mind that if you are not happy with your tree you can always craft it

Is unrefined olive oil and cold pressed olive oil the same thing?

There are many types of olive oil, each made in a different way. 'Cold-press' olive oils are made with a special chemical-free process that results in higher-quality olive oil with lower acidity. Most virgin olive oils are made with this cold press technique, and so are fruitier and lighter than regular olive oils. Regular olive oils tend to have a lighter color, less noticeable flavor, and a lower smoking point than cold pressed olive oils. The lack of flavor makes this oil ideal for certain types of baking, where the flavor of olives is undesirable. They are also less expensive, as the chemical processes used to refine this oil are more accessible to manufacturers.
